ninja...stop...my stomach hurts!
Maybe Jesus is older than we thought. Unibrows, dwarf, hunchback...it's all adding up.

Nope, Jesus was supposed to be the Lamb without blemish. He was both divine
in nature and human, but he was a perfect man and often referred to as the "second
Adam." The Romans were said to have lacked the power to take his life, but Jesus'
ability to freely give it was what provided salvation. -

This is so simple to answer or refute. Look at all of the people you see in existence today and tell me who you think might come close to being perfect? Would it be someone like your favorite actor, someone you have seen on the street or have met? Well in the case of Jesus Christ, he was a "Perfect" man therefore perfect ifn form, intelligence, and appearance. He was "Only" 33 years of age upon his sacrifice so young in appearance. He was perfect in every other sense of the meaning so a handsome man. The artist that portray him as anything else are not using their thinking abilities.......

1 Who has believed our message
and to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?2 He grew up before him like a tender shoot,
and like a root out of dry ground.
He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,
nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. (Isaiah 53:1,2)At the very least, Son of Man, he would have looked something like Popular Mechanics forensic reconstruction of a Galilean shown earlier on this thread.

Son of Man
1 Who has put faith in the thing heard by us? And as for the arm of Jehovah, to whom has it been revealed? 2 And he will come up like a twig before one, and like a root out of waterless land. No stately form does he have, nor any splendor; and when we shall see him, there is not the appearance so that we should desire him.
This means that he was humble and dressed like a commoner, unlike one of royalty and kingship.
